Got another postcard today
|
This one was postmarked Santa Fe
|
All she had to say
|
Was thanks for giving her the space
|
She was needing
|
Got out all her other cards tonight
|
And I've been pouring over every line
|
But the more I do the less I think I like
|
What I'm reading
|
|
There isn't one "wish you were here"
|
"I miss you my dear"
|
"I want you to know, I can't wait to come home"
|
Not one single line saying distance and time
|
Is making her see, I'm really all that she needs
|
With every picture postcard she sends
|
There's a picture I'm starting to get
|
That feeling for me, I hope it's there in her heart
|
It's not meant to be, no it's not in the cards
|
|
Here's one I got a week ago
|
From Ensenada, Mexico
|
Where there should've been an I love you
|
She wrote Adios at the bottom
|
I'd try to reach her if I thought it would help
|
But the cards are speaking for themselves
|
And I've got to play
|
Although the hand she dealt
|
Ain't a hot one
|
|
There isn't one "wish you were here"
|
"I miss you my dear"
|
"I want you to know, I can't wait to come home"
|
Not one single line saying distance and time
|
Is making her see, I'm really all that she needs
|
With every picture postcard she sends
|
There's a picture I'm starting to get
|
That feeling for me, I hope it's there in her heart
|
It's not meant to be, no it's not in the cards
|
|
Oh no no, yeah yeah
|
|
With every picture postcard she sends
|
There's a picture I'm starting to get
|
That feeling for me, I hope it's there in her heart
|
It's not meant to be, no it's not in the card
|
|
Oh no no, no it's not in the cards
|
Bye bye, baby.. no it's not in the cards
|
